We had a tornado warning Friday to late evening. I was supposedly in it’s direct path.
Ended up raining hard and very windy.
Funnel never did touch down.
I was worried about my 4 tomato plants. Planted in 10 gallon containers and trellised using the Florida weave.
They were a bit battered but seem to have bounced back already.
They are flowering and I see 2 small fruits.
Best looking plants I’ve ever had at this point.
I have sweet banana and bell peppers planted in an old flower plot.
They came through just fine and are flowering.
The 3 remaining gladioulus didn’t fare as well. The flower stalk of all 3 got beaten about and ended up on the ground. Oh well.
Temp was back up today but now clouding up with an occasional drop of rain.
Could be another thunder boomer on the way.
I had to move my lemon tree recently to a more protected location due to strong winds. I keep it on a plastic dolly so it’s easy to do. It’s time to give it a dose of nutrition, I think.
